Description: | Medieval cast copper alloy strap slide with internal projections. The strap slide is trapezoid with the outer side slightly longer than the inner. The outer side is D shaped in section with a flat inner edge. There are small knops in the corners and a large central knop which is wider and thicker than the rest of the bar. The other sides are rectangular in section. The internal pointed projections are triangular and placed near the inner side.A similar example, albeit larger, can be found illustrated in Egan and Pritchard (1991, 234; ref. 1263). The example came from a later 14th-century context.
